Move Your Car (Please)

New Haven Mayor Toni Harp has declared an emergency parking ban so the city can clear snow off the streets during and after the predicted overnight storm.

That means no parking on downtown streets. It means no parking on the odd side of residential street.

Here are all the details, from the city:

Mayor Toni N. Harp has announced A CITYWIDE PARKING BAN in effect on all streets in New Haven starting at 11PM tonight, SUNDAY (3/3/19) and will be in effect in zones A & B until 12PM noon MONDAY (3/4/19) and remain in effect in zone C until further notice. Please stay alert for updates as conditions develop.


The ban will include all zones;

ZONE A: DOWNTOWN AREA — all streets bounded by MLK/State/George/Howe, both sides

ZONE B: POSTED SNOW EMERGENCY ROUTES CITYWIDE — both sides

ZONE C: ALL RESIDENTIAL AREAS — No parking on the odd side

On a ZONE C residential street: Don’t be the ODD car on the block!

The parking ban on all posted snow routes will be enforced with an overnight tag/tow operation starting at 11PM.

Keeping Sidewalks Clear!

Don’t forget! During a snow storm, please work to keep your sidewalks clear to their full width. A lot of your neighbors continue to walk and use our sidewalks, and it is important for a Great City to have clear sidewalks during a storm so we all can still get around our neighborhoods and use CT Transit bus stops.
